Hey everyone!
For today’s post, I am updating you all on my progress with the 2020 TBR Reading Challenge, which was created by the lovely Mina @ Stacked.
Here’s a quick recap for anyone who doesn’t know about the challenge…
The Rules:
- Pick a novel for each of the 22 TBR prompts. If that’s too much for you, it’s OK to go for less. However…
- Those who finish all 22 prompts and post their reviews on their blogs/vlogs have a chance to win a book of their choice as a reward! (International, as long as Book Depository ships to your country)
- You can’t start reading those books before January 1st!
- Follow the creators Twitter account as she will create a blog hopping sheet (when the challenge begins) where you can leave your links. Also, to make it easier for her to keep up, please use #2020TBRReadingChallenge tag.
- Thank the person that tagged you
- Tag the original challenge page (this one)
- Tag at least 5 people

Progress:
Okay, so the last time I did an update for this challenge (Update 1) was back in March. I was doing absolutely awfully, and had only read one book, and technically I didn’t even read it, because I DNF’ed it at around 55%.
Since then, I have managed to tick a few more off the list! I have had a lot of arcs/requests/blog tours to focus on, but I’ve been trying to fit books from my list in whenever I can.
From my list, I have now read:
- Searching For Edgar’s Five Dancers by Efren O’Brien (This is the book I DNF’ed) – REVIEW
- Fifty Fifty by Steve Cavanagh – REVIEW
- Lord of the Flies – Review to come
- Domain by James Herbert – REVIEW
- Children of Blood and Bone by Tomi Adeyemi – Review to come
As you can see, I still have a lot more to get through, but I don’t have many arcs/requests to get through, and then I can focus on this a bit more.
Are you taking part in any reading challenges this year?
Have you read any of the books I have chosen?
let me know in the comments!
I have read a couple of books… but The lord of Flies has been on my TBR since a long time!! I have heard nothing but good things about that book!!
